The foreign ministry said it would be interpreted as "granting legitimacy to... terrorist attacks against Jews".
A lot of me understands where Israel is coming from regarding this, and, at the same time, part of me can't help but wonder if that's not being a tad hyper-sensitive.
Pope Benedict XVI on Sunday deplored attacks in "countries including Egypt, Turkey, Iraq and Britain".
Using "including" means he knows there's a list of countries, and *some* of those countries happen to be Egypt, etc...
